.INI File Description

The INI file format is a de facto standard for configuration files. INI files are simple text files with a basic structure. They are commonly associated with Microsoft Windows, but are also used on other platforms. The name "INI file" comes from the filename extension usually used, ".INI". Sometimes, files using the INI file format will use a different extension, such as ".CFG", ".conf", or ".TXT".
